 Acts Of The Apostles, 8-12 (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools
Indeed, in Acts 15 it is twice mentioned that the apostles and elders were gathered together (Acts 15:4, Acts 15:6), and twice we are told that Paul and Barnabas addressed them (Acts 15:4, Acts 15:12).
Harnack (The Acts of the Apostles, 203-29) gives in his usual painstaking way a number of examples of "inaccuracy and discrepancy" But the great bulk of them are merely examples of independence in narration (compare Acts 9 with 22 and 26, where we have three reports of Paul's conversion).
The other apostles are mentioned also by name (Acts 1:13) and a number of times in the first twelve chapters (and in Acts 15).

 Why were the 12 apostles willing to die ? The 12 Disciples - Jesus' Disciples - the First Christian Martyrs
Each of the 12 apostles left family and jobs, traveling to distant countries, preaching that Jesus died and came back to life.
The 12 apostles and others knew Jesus had been beaten, whipped, nailed to a cross, where he died in public display.
These 12 disciples went to their deaths proclaiming what they had no doubts about--that Jesus had risen from the dead, proving that he was everything he claimed to be...the Son of God.

 12 Apostles 6
This was a most frightening experience to the three Apostles, but Jesus especially chose them to see the vision, because he knew they had a greater ability to understand the lesson.
The Apostle Peter said that they were able to make known to the Church the power and glory of the coming kingdom because they witnessed this miraculous vision.
Not only did the Apostle James witness Jesus' power in the raising of Jairus' daughter from the dead and the glory of the coming Christ in the vision, but he also witnessed the sacrifice and great suffering required to accomplish these wonderful blessings.

 The 12 Apostles of the Catholic Church
The Apostles started the process from an established ecclesical perspective and we are a continuation of that same process and calling.
St Paul is included in the twelve Apostle's website because he made a great contribution to the early Church as we too can make a tremendous input to the Church today when we allow God to lead us and be guided by the same Holy Spirit.
The personalities of the apostles, as well as their words and deeds, should have an immediate significance for, and influence on, the active and practical Christian.

I'd read a lot of literature claiming that the Great Ocean Road was the finest ocean drive in the world and yes, it's a nice drive certainly, but nothing tops the Oregon Coast Highway.
Anyway, the most scenic part of the Great Ocean Road is a section called the "12 Apostles," with the Apostles being a series of sea stacks that dot the coastline.
It’s a beautiful area and it was a glorious day, and I decided that the Apostles alone were worth a visit to Victoria.

 The 12 Apostles – Fabricated followers of a fabricated Saviour – Ken Humphreys
One of the reeds of straw holding up the shabby edifice of Christendom is the alleged suffering and cruel fate of his original apostles, the 12 disciples chosen by the Lord himself.
There is NO corroborating evidence for the existence of the 12 Apostles and absolutely NO evidence for the colourful variety of martyrs' deaths they supposedly experienced.
The Bible itself actually mentions the death of only two apostles, a James who was put to death by Herod Agrippa (see James for a discussion of this tricky character) and the nasty Judas Iscariot (see below), who gets several deaths because he's the bad guy.

 Popular saints in Portugal: Saint Matthew   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
According to ecclesiastical tradition, he was the author of the First Gospel and therefore one of the four evangelists.
The effort of the local clergy to abolish this custom has been great, but in vain, because it derives from the relationship with the divinity and appears to be older than the apostle and evangelist Saint Matthew.
In the register, distributed to the pilgrims, those responsible for the church wrote these words: “When you go to Saint Matthew, on the occasion of his festival, do not take anything stolen, or anything that is worthless.
